VFB keeps losing focus (MacOS)

[beenyweenies]

Hello all!

Normally when doing interactive renders, the VFB stays in foreground focus. But I recently moved to macOS and it seems the VFB eventually loses focus almost every session, requiring me to make scene adjustments, then locate the window and bring it forward again etc which is maddening.

Is this a known issue, and/or are there any known causes for this behavior? For example, will switching to other applications while VFB interactive is running cause focus loss?

Does no one from Chaos have anything to say about this? It's a serious workflow issue that is not just affecting me, multiple other colleagues in my team are experiencing this.

I believe this has been fixed already in nightly builds.
